Bleacher Construction Codes


1) What are the principle areas of focus for the Bleacher and Grandstand Construction Codes?

The three principle areas of focus for bleacher codes are on guardrailing, openings in the components of the seating, and aisles.

2) Why were the Bleacher and Grandstand Construction Codes updated in the recent past?

The Bleacher and Grandstand Construction Codes were updated because many people were being injured, with some dying, in bleacher accidents and falls.

3) Do the Bleacher and Grandstand Construction Codes cover other areas of safety?

Yes, there are written standards for access and egress, insufficient or missing aisle space, handrails, non-skid surfaces, and other topics.

Angle Frame Bleachers Systems

1. Do angled frame bleachers need to be constructed on site?
In many cases, the answer is no. Because they are built as a single unit, frame bleachers can be hauled to your school or organization on a flatbed and can be installed with minimal effort.

2. What does it mean that a frame bleacher is “elevated.”
Some bleachers are raised off the ground for optimal viewing, and this is common for the larger units that high schools and small colleges may use for their football fields. Non-elevated bleachers place the first row of spectators at ground level, and in most cases can be used safely without the addition of guardrails or other safety features.

3. Are angle frame bleachers robust enough for the needs of my high school or organization?
Yes. Larger frame bleacher units provide schools with an economical alternative to I Beam bleachers, and they can include plenty of space for spectators, a press box and other features.
